SUNKISSED 85, a collection of Zoe Wiseman’s photographs from 2001 to 2022. 

All First Edition books are signed by the author. 

 All of the images in this book were created using discontinued Polaroid Type 85 film, which is a medium-format Polaroid film that creates both a positive print and a negative when peeled apart after exposure.  To create these images Zoe uses extended techniques like solarization, where the film is peeled apart and exposed to sunlight before it has fully developed.  This technique can create an otherworldly metallic sheen, dark shadows, and areas of unusual contrast.  The title of the book is drawn from her technique of “sun-kissing” the film with natural light, and the “85” is a reference to the Polaroid Type 85 film which was used to create the images.
